Value Assurance Fund gaining 80 years continuously after Black Friday – a year after the end of the illusion it is 80 years ago, that with the so-called “Black Friday” an economic crisis produced its big bang, which many years employed all over the world. On October 24, 1929, the levees broke in the United States (on the following day it popped in Europe). Mass unemployment, deflation and political instability were the result. Collapsed confidence in the functioning of markets and financial instruments. Today, we are in a crisis that is comparable with the 1929.
